An outraged Rev. Al Sharpton is calling for the New York Post to take immediate action to address a column in Monday's editions that he called "blatant racism" and a "media lynching."

Post columnist Steve Serby began his column in Monday's editions with "Good for Tom Coughlin. Good for Coughlin for tightening the noose around Plaxico Burress."

'To make such a blatant racist statement about an African-American football player with a neck injury is completely unacceptable,' Sharpton says about column in the Post.That's all it is? Sheesh, he was talking about a coach not putting up with a player's shenanigans, race was probably the farthest thing from his mind!

A West Hollywood Halloween display showing a likeness of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin hanging by a noose has caused a furor among some residents who reported it as a hate crime, authorities said Monday.

I mean, according to the Tuskegee Institute, 25 percent of the people in this history of this country that were lynched (which is about 4500 people total) were white - in other words for every 3 blacks that were lynched, 1 white was.
